Stars

* * * * * Stars adorn our dark evening skies and twinkle brightly within our sight, * to let us know we are not alone in this vast and unending universe. * * Looking up, we sense the mystery of their glow from light-years away and know we're just a minute speck, * traveling in space along with them. * * * Stars frame our Moon, inspire love and secret wishes to be made upon; * grant inspiration for poetic words, * music, songs, and romantic artistry. * * They draw us in so we may venture * out to them and explore unknowns within our own galaxy and worlds afar... to unfold that mystical space beyond. * * * Our stars hold the mysteries of life * for we know we are made of them... * our building blocks of life are found * within the stardust of our Milky Way. * And, the greatest star of all, our Sun, * * holds us safe and stable in its grasp, delivers sustained energy to live by... * and fills our days with sunshine bliss. * * * * * June 22, 2018 *

You took to heart the nice layout requirement and also decorated the poem with stars, plus the poem itself is beautifully imaginative about why there are stars. Congratulations on your second place win in my contest, Sandra.
